My dad never owned guns, but I kept buying guns.
Like I bought a lever action 30-30.
And so I was into guns and all that stuff anyway.
And...
I'm in Panama and tensions are rising.
They had roughed up a Marine and his wife.
I think they had killed somebody else.
And so Noriega was getting at odds with the American government.
And I think, you know, you hear about it.
I can't say why, but Noriega finally just told the government, I'm not your bull-whippin' boy anymore, and decides he's not gonna listen to them anymore.
And as we know, Noriega was a big part of trafficking cocaine and all those things through Panama, all that stuff.
And so Noriega had his dignity battalion.
And the US, the tensions were rising.

They're bombing.
